Really beguiling, warm nose, smooth and soft on the palate, the typical gummy bears are there, the 46% fits perfectly. The rum is pleasant to drink, not at all tiring. If only the finish wasn't so sour, almost sulphurous ... But some people like that. I found the rum at the end of June 2024 in a small tobacco store in Berlin. It must have been gathering dust in a corner for 8 years. Cost less than 100 EUR. The tobacconist apologized for the price, unfortunately he couldn't keep up with the competitive prices of the online stores. If only he knew ... 😊 P. S.: Unfortunately, the bottle is already empty. 🤷🏽♂️
23.05.2020 Crazy tasting with lots of participants and a few friends. Notes Medium dark in colour. Nose Intense, ester, light wood, dried fruits, pineapple, faint rubber, light leather. Palate Intense, spicy, light wood, fruity, light smoke, grass, faint glye, light citrus, light medicinal. Finish Long and warm, light citrus, light wood, faint floral, light leather, light medicinal.
Somehow fermented. And somehow not so cool. Sour note, the usual savanna strawberry becomes more of a raspberry. Something like tobacco on the back. Really interesting, but not delicious. The alcohol content is also strangely chosen. I would have preferred more or less. Very interesting experience.
I was very pleasantly surprised, was very drinkable and sociable. On the nose, initially some esters, dried light fruits, pear, a little wood, all very round. Then very mild and round on the palate, a great bouquet of fruit, vanilla and wood. So really a palatable Savanna.
